Your map should be delivered in 2 to 3 working days with free delivery, worldwide.
We make maps by hand locally in 23 countries, including Australia. If you're buying a gift for someone in another country, we will make the map locally to them.
You will never pay import tax or customs duty.
Express delivery is available at checkout which can reduce the delivery time to 1-2 days.
Please note that personalised maps, and larger framed maps, can take longer to produce and deliver.
If you need your order to arrive by a certain date, contact me and we can discuss your options.
I print and frame made-to-order maps in 22 countries around the world. This means your map will be made locally, which cuts down on delivery time, reduces the chance of your map being damaged during delivery, and there also won't be any extra taxes or duties to pay— plus we'll put less CO2 into the air.
All maps are printed using giclée print on museum-grade acid free archival matte paper and frames are glazed with super-clear museum-grade acrylic (perspex/acrylite), which is significantly less reflective than glass, safer, and will always arrive in perfect condition.
The world's best maps are held in private collections and in national libraries. That's where I begin my search.
Next, I pore through hundreds, sometimes thousands, of maps to find the meagre handful that are good enough to add to my collection here at The Unique Maps Co.
And finally, the most arduous stage: restoring the detail and beauty of each map. This can take hours, or it might take days for larger or more damaged maps.
